The Consort of Musicke, Anthony Rooley

Recorded: Decca Studio No. 3, West Hampstead, London January 1976

“This is the recording that launched The Consort of Musicke’s series devoted to the complete works of John Dowland. It deserves a permanent place in the lists and the sympathetic performances have much to commend them. A disc for connoisseurs.” Good CD Guide

“Dowland's four-part ayres have never been sung more ravishingly; the solos are very fine too. Diction and recording are superb. Even among the Consort's greatest discs this is an essential landmark.” BBC Music Magazine, February 2008 *****
